I see, the student is already messing up at 47 seconds into the video...
The student is trying to (amongst other things) re-align the plane with the runway via
rudder, rather than via a bit of aileron.
I see, at the 50 seconds into the video, where the pilot is flairing, way too high,
immediately followed by a stall and drop onto the runway.
The sudden drift to the left is from the stall (and possible side wind) as the plane is
falling to the runway.
So the pilot did not fly the plane into the runway, the pilot stalled the plane,
several feet above the runway and fell in.
I agree, as another has stated, that the CFI should have had their hands on the
controls rather than making 'sight picture' gestures.
well, someones' hand was on the throttle, perhaps the CFI left hand.
